Student ProjectHi! I'm a student developer building Calculat in my spare time. I was tired of searching for basic math tools and having to click through 10 spammy popups, loan ads, and cookie trackers.

The Last Traded Price (LTP) Calculator helps day traders, swing traders, and active investors manage trade execution and risk. By evaluating entry price against live LTP, stop-loss levels, and target prices, it instantly calculates open unrealized profit/loss, maximum monetary downside risk, upside reward potential, and the mathematical risk-to-reward ratio (RRR).
\text{Unrealized P\&L} = (\text{LTP} - P_{\text{entry}}) \times Q \quad ; \quad \text{RRR} = \frac{P_{\text{target}} - P_{\text{entry}}}{P_{\text{entry}} - P_{\text{stoploss}}}The risk-reward ratio compares potential profit per share against potential loss per share. Professional traders typically require an RRR of at least 1:2 before taking a position.
Scenario: Entering 200 shares at $50.00 with a Stop-Loss at $47.00, Target at $59.00, and current LTP at $52.50.
Unrealized P&L: ($52.50 - $50.00) × 200 = +$500.00 (+5.00%).
Risk per Share: $50.00 - $47.00 = $3.00 (Total Risk: $600.00).
Reward per Share: $59.00 - $50.00 = $9.00 (Total Reward: $1,800.00).
Risk-to-Reward Ratio: $9.00 / $3.00 = 3.00 (1:3 RRR).
LTP stands for Last Traded Price. It represents the exact price at which the most recent trade, contract, or transaction was executed on a formal stock or commodity exchange.
Most professional traders seek a minimum Risk-to-Reward Ratio of 1:2, meaning the potential gain is at least twice the potential loss. With a 1:2 RRR, you only need to win 34% of your trades to be profitable.
LTP is the price of the last completed transaction. The "bid" is the highest price buyers are currently offering, while the "ask" is the lowest price sellers are currently requesting. The LTP usually sits at or between the current bid and ask.
Monitoring unrealized P&L helps you decide whether to take partial profits, adjust trailing stop-loss orders, or re-evaluate thesis validity before closing the position and incurring realized capital gains tax.
